"For Dr. Petroski, acceptance of uncertainty and possible failure - he calls it "coping with the imponderable" - is what separates the "given world" of the scientist from the "built world" of the engineer." (From the May 2, 2006 New York Times article about Henry Petroski of Duke University (page D3))
Fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers Member of the American Academy of Arts and SciencesMember of the National Academy of Engineering.

Who Am I?Who Am I?I am a geophysicist – a geoscientist who uses physical
principles to understand the structure and processes of the Earth.
I use FM frequency radio signals to produce images of the upper 20 meters of the Earth.
I have been a research professor at Boise State University since 1997.
Hopefully, my background as a scientist will provide context to this course.

Processing information is the key to learning.
I can transfer lots of information to you (tell you the information), but until you process it, until you work with it, you will not develop a deep understanding the information.

My View on MathematicsMy View on Mathematics
I view mathematics as a language.
Mathematics is often the best way to present engineering and scientific theory.
Learning mathematics is not the end goal of this course.
The goal is to be sufficiently comfortable with The goal is to be sufficiently comfortable with mathematics so that you can focus on new mathematics so that you can focus on new engineering concepts without being confused by the engineering concepts without being confused by the mathematics.mathematics.

Your Challenge in MathematicsYour Challenge in Mathematics
But being comfortable with something means using it frequently and understanding its nuances.
You must spend significant time practicing simple, repetitive problems to fully understand the beauty of mathematics.

Course Aims and ObjectivesCourse Aims and ObjectivesPrecalculus lays the foundation for successful
completion of Math 170 and 175. The concepts and methods learned in this course will form the fundamental basis for further studies in math and, most importantly for you, in engineering. Much of the math you will do in engineering is taught in this course. Learn it now so you can avoid struggle in upper level classes later.

Course Aims and ObjectivesCourse Aims and ObjectivesYou need to determine how you learn best, for
example, by seeing the information, hearing the information, or reading the information. You might do best with a combination of different methods. What is important is that you learn how to learn and you learn how to enjoy learning.

Formats and ProceduresFormats and ProceduresI expect you to attend class and to participate by being
actively involved in class. The simplest way to be involved is to think about why a topic or method is being presented. What is the purpose of posing or solving the problem this way.
Ask questions if you do not understand something. Do not be afraid to ask a question. If you do not know the answer, many other students will not know the answer too! If someone is brave enough to ask a question, I expect you to honor their bravery by showing respect to your classmate.

Formats and ProceduresFormats and ProceduresMath 147 is primarily a lecture course combined with
self-learning through ALEKS. This course is part of a Learning Community which includes Engineering 110. You must be registered for both courses to participate in this section (section 008) of Math 147. Attendance in both courses is beneficial to successfully passing Math 147.
Quizzes or exams will be delivered most Fridays during Engineering 110. Homework for Math 147 consists of working through ALEKS on your own and during Friday’s Engineering 110 class after the quiz or exam.
